Im most puzzled about the name change though. I have friends from Aus. and I know many words have different meanings from country to country, but I dont recall an alternate meaning for the word "Folk".
I am aware that some words in one country have much different and vulgar or condescending meanings in other countries

Or maybe the Australian branch of Nintendo thinks that a longer name makes it sound more distinguished? I do know that this also means all different packaging, programing, and manual construction.

I am very curious now to find out what disgusting thing the word "Folk" means in Australia though. heh heh
